PEDITERM

Diabetis Mellitus (DM) is an increasingly common disease and is constantly increasing in Western countries. One of the most serious complications of DM is diabetic peu (*PD), a lesion that develops by itself from the turmell in people with diabetes, due to diabetic neuropathy or peripheral arterial hypertension. To prevent PD, it is crucial to implement effective preventive measures, such as ulcer risk detection and stratification programs. In this context, the PEDITERM project is an innovative initiative to improve the PD ulcer risk detection and stratification system, combining the use of dermal infrared thermography cameras in primary care clinics. This technology will allow us to optimize the early identification of patients with the risk of developing ulcers in diabetic patients, with the goal of reducing complications, such as advanced ulcers and amputations.
